Chapter 2: The Beginning of a New Life

"This is a very comfortable house…"

Everyone went inside the house then Eina and Melisa went straight to the kitchen to prepare lunch. Eina had refused help from Melisa since she was a guest of this house. However, because of Melisa's insistence, Eina could only accept and the two were currently in the kitchen working together to prepare lunch dishes.

"Kouichi-san, can I ask you a favor?"

Arriving at the family room, Haruto immediately opened the conversation between them.

"Help?" Kouichi was quite interested in the conversation that Haruto started.

"Currently, I have a bank account in your family's bank as well as several other accounts. However, these accounts still use the name of my grandmother. Can you help me in changing the account name using Akito-san's name?"

"You started saving already, Haruto-kun?" Mayumi was surprised to hear that.

"That's it" Haruto nodded then looked back at Kouichi, "Can I have this favor?"

"Hahaha~ That's easy for me" Kouichi laughed at that, "When do you plan to do it?"

"If possible, I want to do it now. I am still with you, and the matter will be resolved quickly."

"Okay. Then, wait a moment, I will contact my people. "

Kouichi had no problem assisting Haruto in doing such things since his purpose in coming here was to build a close relationship with Haruto. A child who can increase his wealth in an unnatural status but not illegal acts is something he should approach or at the very least, he should have a good relationship with that person.

Kouichi immediately took out his cell phone and called one of the people.

"You don't seem sad about the departure of your grandmother, Haruto-kun" Mayumi, who had been paying attention to Haruto's expression, concluded that since earlier, Haruto had not shown any sadness. There was only a calm expression.

"Is that so?" Haruto asked while glancing at Mayumi.

"Uh, from the first time I met you until now, I've never seen you show a sad expression or the expression that one usually shows when a loved one dies. You're always calm as if you weren't affected by the current situation," Mayumi continued immediately.

"Feelings, huh?..." Haruto muttered under his breath then smiled slightly looking at Mayumi, "Sad…Of course, you've only seen me directly and right now there's no sad look on my face. That's just the outer appearance, inside me right now…The feeling of sadness has grown greatly from leaving Grandma. It's just that, do I need to be sad to the point of crying so badly that I do bad things? Do I need to do this? If I do that, will Grandma come back to me? Will Grandma come back to comfort me?"

"..." Mayumi was speechless listening to Haruto's answer.

"Whatever I'm doing right now, crying or doing stupid things, Grandma will not come back because now Grandma is gone. There's no point in being sad. What can be done now is to look ahead and move forward. We have to accept something that has happened now. Some fates can be changed and some fates cannot be changed. One of the destinies that cannot be changed is death. Every creature will surely die. We don't know when, maybe now, later, or maybe much later. We just need to prepare ourselves and if that person dies, we just need to accept it because everyone will experience that."

At this time, it wasn't just Mayumi who was left speechless by the answer given by Haruto, but Kouichi, who had just finished contacting one of them, was left speechless while listening to Haruto's answer. Unlike the two of them, Akito and Eiichirou, both of them have been with Haruto for a long time and know about Haruto's abilities, skills, attitudes, and how to socialize with someone. Therefore, they weren't surprised a child could give such a very mature answer.

"That's quite a surprising answer for me" Kouichi immediately said while glancing at Haruto, "Your mind is almost—No, maybe saying that you have a more mature mind is quite wrong considering that many adults usually don't have the same mindset as you"

"This pattern of my thinking was obtained by me because of the knowledge that is owned by me" Haruto replied, "The more knowledge a person has, then, that person will know that he is very small compared to what is in this world. My wisdom got to me from there too."

"I see" The more Kouichi got to know Haruto, the more satisfied he was with Haruto's character and the more he wanted Haruto to be his son or son-in-law. His gaze glanced at Mayumi who was currently watching Haruto more focused than before, "Mayumi…We're counting on you. Hope you can pull this child into the family…"

"Kouichi-san, what about my earlier request?" Haruto asked again with great interest.

"Don't worry about that" Kouichi said with a smile, "I have already contacted the head of our family bank branch here and he will be coming soon with the rest of the staff to assist in changing the name in your account."

"Thank you very much"

Kouichi then glanced towards the inside of the house then his eyes stopped right on the piano in the living room, "Piano?"

Kouichi's gaze then glanced at Haruto and the others, "Is that still usable?"

"That piano can still be used" Akito answered immediately, "Usually Haruto-kun and Eiichirou play it"

"Oh? You both know how to play the piano?" Mayumi asked with a surprised expression.

"Not bad" Eiichirou nodded "But, compared to me. Haruto was better at playing it. He has even created several songs which are nice to listen to."

"You underestimate yourself too much, Eiichirou" Haruto replied immediately, "Your piano skills are already very good for your age. You don't need to compare her to me."

"But what I said is a fact, isn't it?" Eiichirou didn't want to lose and immediately replied, "Compared to our playing skills, your piano playing skills are better, even your playing skills have surpassed Mother's skills"

"Haruto-kun" Kouichi called out to him with a smile, "Maybe it's a bit impolite considering it's your grandmother's death day. But…Can you play a song for us to listen to? Of course, you can refuse if you don't want that."

"Hmm," Haruto shook his head, "It's fine. I can play it."

Haruto got off his seat and immediately walked towards the piano. It didn't take long for him to arrive there and immediately made the seating arrangements and lifted the cover of the piano.

"What song will you play, Haruto?" Eiichirou asked, "Someone else's song or your own?"

"...How about Miss the Rain?"

"Oh? That song?" Eiichirou and Akito were a little surprised when they heard the song Haruto wanted to sing.

"Is there something related to the song that will be performed by Haruto-kun, Akito-san?" Kouichi was quite interested in that.

"This is a song that Haruto-kun composed one year ago to commemorate the death of Akira-san," Akito said quietly.

"A song to commemorate the death of Akira-san…" Kouichi was quite surprised to hear that.

"The title of this song was made because when this song was first played, it was raining at a moderate level that day. Therefore, as soon as Haruto-kun finished his game, he immediately gave the name of the song as Miss the Rain…"

As Akito finished speaking, Haruto started playing his piano. In that instant, the aura in the living room changed completely. Everyone in the living room, their gazes immediately turned to Haruto. No one dared to say anything at this time especially Akito and Eiichirou who as long as Haruto was playing his game, of them would not say anything because they wanted to enjoy Haruto's game.

"This…piano sound?"

Melisa and Eina who were in the kitchen immediately stopped their cooking activities while listening to the sound of the piano coming from Haruto's playing.

"This song…" The moment Eina heard the first note of the song, she could immediately guess who was playing the piano followed by the song that the player would play, "The person playing should be Haruto-kun."

"Haruto-kun?" Melisa was a little surprised to hear that then she looked at Eina, "He can play the piano?"

"Not only can he, but he's good at playing the piano," Eina said, "I've been learning to play the piano for a long time, but, Haruto-kun. In just one year period of him learning from me, he has surpassed me and has even composed a lot of his songs where all songs composed by him, as long as they are marketed to the outside world, I can guarantee that those songs will become songs that will be loved by people. many people"

"..."

Melissa was stunned to hear this.

However, the only information that Melisa has about Haruto is his academic ability and also Haruto's ability to handle the stock market. Only that, and other abilities and skills possessed by Haruto, Melisa did not know about it at all.

"The song played by him at the moment is called Miss the Rain. This is a song that Haruto composed one year ago to commemorate the death of Akira-san, the husband of Sakura-sama. This song itself is very pleasant to listen to and also…Anyone who listens to this song will be easy to remember someone they want to remember…"

Eina quickly turned off all the current cooking equipment and then started to focus on listening to Haruto's playing. Eina did this because she knew that, as long as she continued with her current job, it would be very dangerous especially when Haruto was performing the song. She was afraid that if she suddenly remembered something then all the activities she was doing at this time would have been forgotten by him which would be very dangerous for him and the others.

Everyone in the house was listening quietly until suddenly Akito and the others saw Haruto who at this time had tears slowly starting to come out of his eyes.

"Haruto-kun…He…" Mayumi was very surprised to hear that.

"Don't bother him" Akito immediately stopped Mayumi, "Haruto-kun…He's probably currently inside his mind and remembering various kinds of incidents that he experienced in the past with Sakura-sama. Just let it go and keep listening to all the piano playing"

Mayumi glanced at Akito and the moment she looked at Akito, Mayumi saw tears slowly starting to fall from Akito's eyes. The same thing applies now to Akito where he is now starting to remember his previous time together with Sakura and also various kinds of memories with his parents.

"D-father…"

When Mayumi looked at him, she was surprised that at this time Kouichi had lowered his head and it seemed that tears were slowly starting to fall from his eyes. Kouichi, when the song had begun to enter the middle part, he began to recall his memories with his father and mother who had now passed away.

Not only the two of them but also Eina and Melisa at this time, both of them had been pulled by emotional waves and each of them had reminisced about various times they had been together with their father and mother. Tears slowly started to come out of their eyes as they continued to listen to Haruto's game.

"Haruto's game…More emotional than before…" Eiichirou commented in a low voice which Mayumi could hear.

"More emotional?..."

"Maybe it's because he just lost someone he loved so much...Maybe, because of that, his piano playing especially plays this song...Better than before...I can feel the sadness and also the deep regret that Haruto is currently feeling through the game"

"Sadness and Regret…"

Mayumi then began to focus on listening to Haruto's playing when she began to be penetrated by emotional waves from Haruto, "This feeling…" Mayumi immediately felt the very sad and regretful feelings that Haruto was currently feeling.

Unknowingly, her tears slowly began to flow as her eyes stared at Haruto as if she didn't want to look away from him.

Out of everyone, only Eiichirou didn't cry. Eiichirou could have cried right now, especially when he felt Haruto's great pain, sadness, and regret. However, Eiichirou kept himself steadfast and continued to defend himself from crying.

"How can you hide all these feelings as if you don't have any?"

"Once again, thank you for coming here to pay my last respects to my grandmother, Kouichi-san, Melisa-san, and Mayumi," Haruto said politely to the Nanami family who were currently in the front yard of the house since the Nanami family had to back soon.

"You don't need to thank me, this is already an obligation that we have," Kouichi said with a smile then continued, "Haruto-kun, if you need anything or help, please feel free to ask us for help. As long as it's something we can do, we'll help you."

Previously, Kouichi and Haruto had exchanged their respective phone numbers which allowed the two to communicate with each other.

"I will do it" Haruto nodded.

"Hey, Haruto" Mayumi then called him and said, "If you come to Tokyo, you must tell me the news of your arrival. I will take you for a walk there. Don't forget this

Even though this was the first interaction between Haruto and Mayumi, Mayumi had already developed a feeling of attraction to Haruto. A man who has a calm demeanor, and a mature mindset as well as himself has wealth that exceeds the wealth possessed by people in general and also has various kinds of skills. Of course, there will be many women who are attracted to this kind of man. Moreover, the way Haruto treated someone especially a woman was very gentle. Because of that, Mayumi had drawn her attention to Haruto.

Mayumi herself already knew how much wealth Haruto had since before, Haruto had asked for her 40 billion yen to be placed in her savings account while currently there was still 43 billion yen remaining in her international stock trading account.

The first time Mayumi found out about this, she could only remain silent and couldn't say anything, and that also made Mayumi aware of the things that made Kouichi, her father pay more attention to Haruto.

It's just that, Kouichi's attention to Haruto at this time is not only on Haruto's ability to analyze stocks related to market values. After Kouichi directly hit Haruto, Kouichi's concern for Haruto was not only related to that but everything about Haruto. Kouichi became even more interested in that.

"Before you say that, you need to get the cellphone first" Haruto replied curtly, "As long as you have it, it's easy for me to tell you where I am there"

"Hehehe~ Don't worry, I will buy one after coming back from here and then will directly give you the news."

"I will wait for that from you"

After saying one of their goodbyes, Kouichi and the others immediately walked back to their car to quickly return to Tokyo.

"It seems Mayumi has feelings for you," Eiichirou who was beside Haruto said casually, "What do you think—"

"Pat!..."

"Sick! Hey, what are you doing? Why did you hit me?" Eiichirou asked with a sullen expression while holding the back of the head that Haruto had just hit.

"We are still too young to think about love matters," Haruto said, "Instead of thinking about such things, it's better to think about yourself especially how to develop yourself. Are you satisfied with just what you have right now?"

"Hmph! Of course not" Eiichirou said with a sniff, "At the very least, even if I'm not as genius as you are, there must be an area that I surpass."

Akito and Eina chuckled at the interaction between Haruto and Eiichirou. They then immediately returned to the house. After cleaning all the equipment used, starting from the burial process to eating together. Akito and his entire family immediately returned to their house to start cleaning up all their belongings which would later be moved to Haruto's house.

The clothes currently owned by Sakura have also been moved by Haruto into the storage shed and stored in a neat place so that they are not easily destroyed by time or by various animals that usually destroy things.

The time finally reached night and at this time in the house, there was only Haruto alone who was currently in his room while looking at the sky through the window, "6 years, huh?..." Haruto muttered softly.

"It's been 6 years since I've been in this world and finally...The person I loved and loved has gone...I didn't expect that the pain of being left by someone very close to us would leave this kind of immense pain..."

Haruto's current life could be said to be his second life. Haruto had previously been transported to this world by some almighty entity. Haruto was given three abilities before he moved to this world, namely super thinking abilities, super physical abilities, and super talent abilities.

Super thinking ability is an ability that allows Haruto to have very high thinking abilities like a supercomputer. This ability also allows Haruto to do analysis, draw conclusions, and learn something in the academic field or a piece of writing very quickly. Thanks to this ability, in the span of a few years, Haruto's academic knowledge has exceeded the academic abilities of a large number of people in every academic field.

Superphysical ability is an ability that allows Haruto to have very strong physical abilities. This ability also allows Haruto to be able to adapt various conditions and also allows Haruto's physical strength to increase very strongly and also gains the ability to be difficult to get sick such as fever and diseases similar to these diseases.

Super talent ability is an ability that allows Haruto to learn a skill or ability in a short time. Thanks to this ability, Haruto can easily master the ability to play the piano, play basketball, the ability to use a computer, and various other abilities that he currently has.

That being said, thanks to these three abilities, Haruto had everything that people always wanted to have. However, even though he possessed these abilities, Haruto had no thoughts of showing or showing off his abilities and preferred to keep his abilities and choose only a few people to know about them. Because Haruto realized that the more famous he became, the more troublesome it would be for him especially if there were a lot of crazy fans trying to do something to him.

"Ring!..."

Suddenly the sound of his cell phone ringing immediately caught Haruto's attention. Haruto immediately turned around and found that the screen of his cell phone that was on his desk was lit and there was an incoming call that was currently happening.

Haruto then immediately approached his cellphone then took it and saw the number that called him.

"Unlisted number? Who is calling me at this time of night?"

Haruto was a little confused when he found that the number that had called him was not listed on his contact list. Haruto had the urge not to pick up the communication line. However, feeling uneasy, Haruto quickly picked up the line of communication.

"Hello, who is this?"

Haruto immediately started a conversation between the two in a slightly wary tone.

"Good, finally connected too. Hey, Haruto-kun, why did it take you so long to answer my call?"

"This voice?..." Haruto who heard the voice talking to him immediately lost his vigilance and said again, "It's you, Mayumi."

"Uh? Is there something?" Mayumi who heard Haruto's reply was slightly surprised and immediately asked about the current situation.

"No, nothing. It's just, I was thinking about who is calling me at this time of night and it turns out it's you"

"Didn't I tell you earlier that I would buy a cell phone to be able to communicate with you all the time?"

"You did say such things, however, didn't tell me that you would contact me tonight. You know, I almost didn't want to pick up the phone and ignore it."

"Hehe~ Does that mean it's my fault? Then, I'm sorry" Mayumi said in a slightly guilty tone and then continued, "Hey, Haruto-kun. Don't you have plans to come to Tokyo?"

"Coming to Tokyo?" Haruto thought for a moment then replied, "Probably next week, I'll probably be there"

"You will come next week? That's good! Hey, we can play together and guys, I can show you a lot of interesting things in this place. You should have told me quickly the moment you came here. Are you going to stay overnight or just one day here?" Mayumi, who heard the news about Haruto's arrival, must have been very excited.

"I still don't know whether it's possible to stay or not" Haruto replied, "I plan to come there to buy a new car"

"New car? Don't you have a car in your house? Why do you want to buy a new car?" Mayumi asked with great interest.

"The car at home is an old type of car and I think it's better to just keep the car. I'm afraid that the car will be damaged or something will happen. It's one of my grandma's mementos and if I could, I wouldn't want to ruin the memory."

"I see" Mayumi nodded and continued, "What car do you want to buy? How about you buy a car similar to the car used by our family? This car is very comfortable to use. There are also many friends of Father and Mother who also use this car "

"The car that your family owns is a RsRoys car and it is one of the highest quality luxury cars. Of course, this car is very comfortable to use because it is comparable to the quality and price of the car," Haruto replied.

"Is that so? However, you can still get a car like this, right?"

"Well, the price of that car to me is indeed quite cheap. It's just that, if I want to get the car, especially the new one, I need to wait six to eight months before I can get the car."

"Very long?!" Mayumi was surprised by Haruto's words, "Can't you get that car right away?"

"The car is very steep and to get a new one, it is required to place an order directly at the shop. Of course, it will take about six months or even more to get the car. Everything depends on market conditions. As long as there is a lot of demand for the car, then, the waiting time will be quite long" Haruto said calmly, "But, there is a quicker way to get such a car in new condition. It's just that the car that is obtained will not be by the desired settings and will be by the settings desired by the owner of the car or in other words by the showroom of the car. In addition, the value of the car will also increase slightly compared to the original price from the shop directly.

"Then, are you going to look for another type of car?"

"No" Haruto shook his head, "I will buy the same car as the car your family owns."

"But, doesn't that mean you need to wait a long time to get the car?"

"Not really" Haruto replied, "I can buy a car through the showroom. I am not too interested in the interior of the car. As long as the car is still in use and functioning properly. That's enough for me"

"Do you need our help?" Mayumi asked quickly, "We can find information related to the car you want so that the next time you come, we can go there immediately to see the car."

"Wouldn't that be too troublesome? You know, that sort of thing could be done by myself. Nowadays it is easy to get information via the internet"

"Hey, you don't need to be too afraid or embarrassed to ask for help from us. Didn't Father tell you that you are free to ask us for help? Besides that, gathering information about cars is easy for us, you don't worry, it's not troublesome"

"Uh, well, if that doesn't bother you. I don't think it's a problem to ask for help finding the car that I want."

"Okay, I'll tell Father about this." Mayumi paused and continued, "Do you guys need a ride to come to Tokyo?"

"You guys don't need to bother doing something like that" Haruto immediately refused quickly, "We can go there alone"

"Hey, are you still reluctant to ask our family for help?" Mayumi said in a slightly sullen tone.

"It's not like that, but the help you have given is too much" Haruto replied, "Let us also do things ourselves and I don't like to depend too much on other people"

"Is that so? Well then, never mind" Mayumi replied.

"By the way, Mayumi. How old are you now? Have you entered elementary school?" Haruto started talking again about a new topic.

"Age? Now I am 6 years old and already in elementary school. How about you?" Mayumi asked with great interest.

"...Uh? Six years? Hey, that means we're the same age" Haruto said casually.

"Same age? Does that mean you're six years old now?"

"Well," Haruto confirmed this, "I was only six years two months ago and maybe you are older than me since you already entered elementary school and you should be seven years old by now"

"I'm older?" Mayumi asked excitedly, "Hehehe~ Haruto-kun—-No, Haru-kun. From now on you can call me Mayumi-Onnechan or Onee-chan. What do you think?"

"You have too much hope, don't you? Such a call only applies to a pair of blood brothers and we are not. I will still call you Mayumi as usual"

"Hey, that's not interesting"

"Maybe it's not interesting for you but for me, it's more interesting"

"It's still uninteresting. But, well, never mind. Hey, it's fine for me to call you Haru-kun, right? I think it fits better than Haruto-kun"

"You're free to do it, as long as it's not a bad call, I have no problem with that"

"Okay, then it's decided"

"Well, Mayumi. That's all for tonight" Haruto glanced at the clock and found that it was already 9:00 p.m., "It's time for me to start work now."

"Work?" Mayumi was quite surprised to hear that.

"Why are you surprised? How do you think I will get all my current wealth if I don't work?"

"..." Mayumi was speechless hearing that.

"The international stock market only opens at night and this is the time for me to get to work. Well, it didn't take too long for me to work because as long as the information is owned, I know which stocks I need to buy and which ones I don't. Well, that's all for today and please convey to Kouichi-san my previous request for help."

"Don't worry, I'll tell Father about it" Mayumi replied and continued, "Hey, don't work too late and go to bed early. It's not good for a child to sleep too late."

"I know, I will do just that"

"Also, don't forget next week to update me regarding my arrival and also regarding how long you are staying in Tokyo. Don't forget this

"Yes, yes, I will do it"

"Hehehe~ Good. Alright, Haru-kun, good night, and don't stay up too late."

"I know, goodnight too"

The communication line between the two closed immediately as Haruto lowered his cell phone and glanced at the phone number, "Such a considerate child…" Haruto chuckled softly and then immediately saved Mayumi's phone number into his contact list.

"Well..." Haruto then immediately put his cell phone on the table and sat down on the chair that was there. He immediately activated his laptop, "Let's start working..."

******

Tokyo, Minato District, Home of the Nanami Family.

"Haru-kun?"

Right at this time in the living room of the Nanami family house. Kouichi, Melisa, and Mayumi were seen there. Mayumi, who had communicated with Haruto before, quickly searched for the whereabouts of her parents, whom she found in the living room.

"Who is Haru-kun, Mayumi?" Melissa asked confusedly.

When Mayumi had just discovered the whereabouts of the two, Mayumi quickly informed him that Haruto was asking for help but it was different from before when Mayumi called him, Haruto called "Haruto-kun", when she mentioned Haruto's name to Kouichi and Melisa, Mayumi called him with the nickname "Haru-kun". This was also what caused Kouichi and Melisa's confusion.

"That's Haruto-kun, that's a new nickname I used for him" Mayumi quickly explained.

"Oh? I see" Melisa and Kouichi finally understood immediately.

"Then, what request for help did Haruto-kun convey to us?" Kouichi quickly asked.

"He asked for help to find a car similar to the car we used before when we came to his house"

"Looking for a car?" Melisa asked back, "He is interested in buying a car?"

"Well," Mayumi nodded, "Haru-kun said that the car in his house won't be used anymore since it's a memento left that belonged to his Grandmother. Therefore, he intends to buy a new car that will be used later. He said he wanted to buy the same car as our family's but according to him, if you bought it in person at the auto shop, it would take about six to eight months to wait for it to get to him…" Mayumi paused for a moment then glanced at Kouichi, "Father, is that true? Does it take that long to get the car even if someone has the money to get one?"

"That's right" Kouichi nodded, "That car is a kind of step car where to get a new car from the car it is required to place an order before getting it. There is the fastest way to get the car, namely by looking for it in a car showroom. It's just that the price offered by the showroom is higher than the original price. In addition, later the car that is obtained is not by the wishes or the inside of the car will follow the request of the previous owner and is not by the wishes of the car owner who will get the car."

"That's according to what Haru-kun said…" Mayumi muttered softly.

"Mayumi" Kouichi called back "Is it possible that Haruto-kun asked for help finding information regarding the existence of a showroom that sells such cars in a new type?"

"Uh," Mayumi nodded, "That's what she wanted and also, Haru-kun will most likely come here next week to get the car. Father, can we get the desired information?"

"Hahaha, that's an easy thing to do" Kouichi laughed at that, "Don't worry, it was easy for us to get the information."

"That's good. Haru-kun must be very happy to hear that information."

"Mayumi" Melisa then called Mayumi who was currently excited to hear the information, "How is your relationship with Haruto-kun? You two communicated with each other earlier, right? Did he respond well to you?"

"We talked well beforehand and also as long as he is coming here, he will give me the news. He also allowed me to call him Haru-kun"

Kouichi and Melisa who heard this nodded happily. The wish of the two is to have Haruto and Mayumi become a couple. They couldn't refuse a child-like Haruto from becoming their son-in-law. It could be said that Haruto was the perfect candidate to become Mayumi's partner.

It's just that, they also may not be able to move aggressively. They knew that it was impossible to use matchmaking to match Haruto and Mayumi. When the two of them met Haruto, both of them understood little about Haruto's personality which did not like to be ordered or controlled. Therefore, as long as the two of them dared to carry out the act of arranged marriage, there was a high chance that the relationship between them might be maintained but perhaps getting to the ladder of matchmaking or marriage was something that waive.

This made them drop their hopes on Mayumi. They both hoped that Mayumi would attract the attention of Haruto.

"By the way, next week. Isn't there an event from the Shiryu family?" Melisa suddenly remembered something and immediately reminded Kouichi about it.

"The event from the Shiryu family is held on a Friday night. We can still attend the event" Kouichi answered directly then glanced at Mayumi, "Mayumi, did Haruto-kun tell you the day of their arrival?"

"No" Mayumi shook her head, "Haru-kun only said that he would come next week and was not told the date or day on which he would come"

"Is there a possibility that his arrival will clash with the day that the event from the Shiryu family takes place?" Melissa muttered under her breath.

"That's fine with that" Kouichi shook his head, "The event is held at night and as long as they come on Friday, we can accompany him to go look for the car he wants at noon before the event starts."

Kouichi then glanced at Mayumi, "You can go back to your room Mayumi and get some rest. Also, if there is any information about Haruto-kun especially himself informing the date or day of his arrival, you can immediately tell us about it."

"Okay, Dad"

Mayumi nodded and rushed straight to her room to rest.

"We can't reunite Haruto with the other families" Melisa immediately said seriously while glancing at Kouichi, "It's very dangerous as long as the other conglomerate families know the whereabouts of Haruto—No, it's fine as long as they know it's just that they shouldn't know about the abilities and the skills he has. As long as that happens, the competition for Haruto-kun will become even more difficult especially if the four families make their moves head-on."

"Well," Kouichi nodded and continued, "But, I guess we're worrying too much. Based on the observations I had obtained, Haruto-kun wasn't someone who would attract attention or show anything of himself to others. If it weren't for him having a savings account in our bank, we might not even know about his whereabouts and the things he owns. Take another example of his piano skills."

"Piano skills…Haruto-kun, that kid's piano skills are amazing…" Melisa said with a sigh, "Songs he composed himself are also amazing…"

"I will not deny this because the child's ability to play the piano is extraordinary. He could play on someone's emotions very easily. Haruto-kun, if that kid wants to be famous, only with those piano skills, he can attract attention from various parties. But, what now? There's no news regarding Haruto-kun until now. That is, he is not someone who likes to show off his abilities or possessions. It would be a very good point for us to be able to hide Haruto-kun's whereabouts as long as possible from the rest of the family until Haruto-kun and Mayumi's relationship becomes so close that it will be difficult for other women to enter into their relationship."

"Well…" Melissa nodded.

They both realized that they couldn't hide their existence from Haruto. Haruto, with this ability, will slowly be known by other families. Therefore, the only way for them right now was to try to hide Haruto's whereabouts as best they could until the relationship between Haruto and Mayumi became very close.
